If a charged particle experiences a force in a magnetic field would it be possible to introduce a charged particle into an magnetic field and keep it spinning around in circles indefinately whether its in a vacuum or not.
A particle moving in a circle is a type of motion in which an object travels along a circular path with a constant speed. This type of motion is also known as circular motion.
A particle moves in a circle due to the presence of a centripetal force. This force acts towards the center of the circle and keeps the particle moving along the circular path.
The speed of a particle in circular motion is directly proportional to its radius. This means that as the radius of the circle increases, the speed of the particle also increases. Similarly, as the radius decreases, the speed of the particle decreases.
In uniform circular motion, the speed of the particle remains constant throughout the motion, while in non-uniform circular motion, the speed of the particle changes at different points along the circular path.
The centripetal force is directly proportional to the mass of the particle and the square of its velocity. This means that as the mass or velocity of the particle increases, the centripetal force required to keep it moving in a circle also increases.
